Continuous-time quantum walks (CTQWs) provide a valuable model for quantum transport, universal quantum computation and quantum spatial search, among others. Recently, the empowering role of new degrees of freedom in the Hamiltonian…
This article first gives a concise introduction to quantum phase transitions, emphasizing similarities with and differences to classical thermal transitions. After pointing out the computational challenges posed by quantum phase…
We show that quantum walks interpolate between a coherent `wave walk' and a random walk depending on how strongly the walker's coin state is measured; i.e., the quantum walk exhibits the quintessentially quantum property of complementarity,…
Non Commutative Geometry (NCG) is considered in the context of a charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field. The classical and quantum mechanical treatments are revisited and a new marker of NCG is introduced. This marker is then…
We consider the problem of mapping digital data encoded on a quantum register to analog amplitudes in parallel. It is shown to be unlikely that a fully unitary polynomial-time quantum algorithm exists for this problem; NP becomes a subset…
In a previous paper [J.S.Briggs and A.Eisfeld, Phys.Rev.A 85, 052111] we showed that the time-development of the complex amplitudes of N coupled quantum states can be mapped by the time development of positions and velocities of N coupled…
We present a generalized definition of discrete-time quantum walks convenient for capturing a rather broad spectrum of walker's behavior on arbitrary graphs. It includes and covers both: the geometry of possible walker's positions with…
By exploiting the complexity intrinsic to quantum dynamics, quantum technologies promise a whole host of computational advantages. One such advantage lies in the field of stochastic modelling, where it has been shown that quantum stochastic…
The calculation of quantum canonical time correlation functions is considered in this paper. Transport properties, such as diffusion and reaction rate coefficients, can be determined from time integrals of these correlation functions.…
In a previous paper a formalism to analyze the dynamical evolution of classical and quantum probability distributions in terms of their moments was presented. Here the application of this formalism to the system of a particle moving on a…
In this letter we introduce the concept of a driven quantum walk. This work is motivated by recent theoretical and experimental progress that combines quantum walks and parametric down- conversion, leading to fundamentally different…
We study a class of Unitary Quantum Walks on arbitrary graphs, parameterized by a family of scattering matrices. These Scattering Quantum Walks model the discrete dynamics of a system on the edges of the graph, with a scattering process at…
We present a Mathematica package, QSWalk, to simulate the time evaluation of Quantum Stochastic Walks (QSWs) on arbitrary directed and weighted graphs. QSWs are a generalization of continuous time quantum walks that incorporate both…
We investigate the possibility of solving continuous non-convex optimization problems using a network of interacting quantum optical oscillators. We propose a native encoding of continuous variables in analog signals associated with the…
p-Mechanics is a consistent physical theory which describes both quantum and classical mechanics simultaneously. We continue the development of p-mechanics by introducing the concept of states. The set of coherent states we introduce allow…
We establish a connection between continuous-variable quantum computing and high-dimensional integration by showing that the outcome probabilities of continuous-variable instantaneous quantum polynomial (CV-IQP) circuits are given by…
We study a particular class of trace-preserving completely positive maps, called PQ-channels, for which classical and quantum evolutions are isolated in a certain sense. By combining open quantum random walks with a notion of recurrence, we…
Quantum walks have emerged as an interesting candidate for the implementation of quantum information processing protocols. Optical implementations of quantum walks have been demonstrated by various groups and some have received high-profile…
The dynamics of hybrid systems -- i.e. ones in which classical and quantum degrees of freedom co-exist and interact -- feature both diffusion in the classical sector and decoherence in the quantum state. In this article, we will consider…
The time evolutions of discrete-time quantum walks on graphs are determined by the local adjacency relations of the graphs. In this paper, first, we construct a discrete-time quantum walk model that reflects the embedding on the surface so…
